Makis Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Here's a brief scout report on him: http://www.faceoffootball.com/2016/03/27/scout-report-on-diego-rolan-bordeaux-uruguay/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevO Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 You can't just assume he's shit. Wonder if Leicester thought that when they signed Mahrez and Kante? Sometime you've got trust our manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 Here's a brief scout report on him: http://www.faceoffootball.com/2016/03/27/scout-report-on-diego-rolan-bordeaux-uruguay/ I'm not arsed what the chief scout says, the chief scout who scouted Niasse or Leandro no doubt said the same. I see he's a 1 in 4 striker that we could possibly spunk upwards of 20 million on and he has those stats in a shite league. That's what I'm arsed about. The chief scout can blow as much smoke up his shitter as he wants because chief scouts don't always get it right. Cue the "I'll trust him over you shouts" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted July 11, 2016 Report Share Posted July 11, 2016 (edited) He's not a striker for starters. And if Ligue 1 is shite then Eredivision and Liga NOS are absolute garbage. What you are basically saying is that you without even seeing a player can make a better judgement than a pro who has scouted the player? You can't be serious. This is some kind of pisstake?

Haiku Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 (edited) Rolan is playing on the wings but is adept playing in front. Think of Mirallas. One of the best wing-forwards in Ligue 1, and is young with plenty of potential. Should be a good signing.

He is a striker it's his primary position but he's used in a front 3 at Bordeaux and we could be spunking up to 20 million pounds on a 1 in 4 striker so I don't want him, it's that simple. It's my opinion and as I've stated earlier, do you have the report for Niasse, Klodrup or players like that. Chief scout reports mean nothing to me, it's not like every player a club signs is a worldy is it. If we were paying 6-10 for him as a squad player fair enough but 20 million?? And yes the French league is dreadful proved by the fact PSG won it by about christmas last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sometime you've got trust our manager. The point I'm making Steve is he's not going to dramatically improve us is he. For every Mahrez there's a Niasse. Truth is he'll probably be somewhere inbetween the two but 20 million for a 1 in4 striker?? No thanks we may as well stick with Kone and give Niasse a go because that's 1/5th of our budget gone.

Hafnia Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 20m wtf. Mahrez cost only the price of a Mars bar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddock Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 20m wtf. Mahrez cost only the price of a Mars bar. That's my whole point. 20 million for a striker and he is a striker who scores on average 1 in 4 in a poor league . Dick Tuurpin must be doing the deal.

Paddock Posted July 12, 2016 Report Share Posted July 12, 2016 if you think that you can get players for Mars bar prices forget it there too much money in the game now it's all sky and bt,s fault. Yep when you're shelling out 20 million for a player that's scored 24 goals in90 games in a poor Crench league it's a pretty safe bet to say football is fucked!

Lowensda Posted July 17, 2016 Report Share Posted July 17, 2016 Some Scandinavian reporter was suggesting Rui Patricio could be on the move, he's desperate for a Premier move but the top clubs have already stocked themselves in the GK department. Could be a possible? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 https://twitter.com/dahbiahattabi/status/757682775747096576 Is this the Sunderland Kone? Certainly helped get their defence sorted at the end of last season it seemed but don't know much about him. Micah Richards is off there for £5m - Moyes will have him as a big strong right back no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve_E Posted July 26, 2016 Report Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) If we're just throwing out names, I'd like Everton to take a long hard look at Leon Bailey. 18-year-old Jamaican left winger for Racing Genk and in my opinion the most talented player I've seen in the Belgian league since De Bruyne left.

Agreed, would be estatic if we pinched Memphis, so young, so Dutch, only thing, I don't think koeman will have his attitude. He was found in nightclubs at all hours last season... Does anyone know how much they would want for him... Ballpark figure? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angel's Delight Posted July 27, 2016 Report Share Posted July 27, 2016 Mr Walsh, can we please raid the top clubs and pinch one of their 2nd choice keepers. I've got a feeling city will have a new number 1... Which means we could try our luck with joe hart, there is begovic, ospina. I feel Hennessy (Wales,palace) would be acceptable also. Have we been linked with any keepers yet? Kind of desperately need one lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
